A Prescription For Grief

Grief is devastating. It's powerful enough to kill us if we let it. 

Closure is evasive, even when we do all of the right things, consistently and faithfully, to encourage its progress. 

The healthiest option is to be honest about our feelings. Be sad when you're sad. Be angry when you're angry. Never hide from the truth, even when the truth is brutal.

Focus on the future, even if that future seems unimaginable. Keep moving forward every day. Believe with all of your heart that brighter times lie ahead, and do whatever it takes, for however long it takes, to reach those brighter days.
